Face saving decision

Face saving decision?

It was good to know that the government decided to ease lockdown effective June 12/2020 citing difficulties faced by the people and many other financial, social and productive sectors due to eighty days lockdown. However, I am not so sure whether the government was compelled to ease lockdown soon after the traders in different parts of the country started flouting government’s lockdown blaming it for not bringing out any relief packages?    

I am nervous looking at the rapid increase in the number of infected persons in different parts of the country. And, in the other hand, people have not seen maintaining social distancing and wearing face masks in the crowded places following the government's decision of easing lockdown. This is definitely a very scary situation. 

Can the government and its concerned machinery handle the situation if it becomes pandemic due to easing lockdown and negligence on the part of the people? The government has already made blunder for not properly managing the influx of its people entering Nepal from the southern border points and maintaining proper quarantines.  

Lockdown is officially eased, with private vehicles allowed on odd-even basis and shops to open
